Q: Me and my family are looking to change things up this year. Any ideas?
A: yes, instead of making sweet potatoes with brown sugar or marshmallows (yuck!) Try slicing thin & sauteing in olive oil with crushed garlic & diced onion? Sweet potato pie instead of pumpkin pie roast a duck or a goose instead of a turkey Chuck the whole turkey thing, & bake a ham Instead of a big turkey, do several entree's-salmon, rib roast, chicken, Have a pot-luck T-day, everyone cook & bring a seperate dish Go traditional/spirtual, set aside the gluttony & spend the day in fasting & prayer/meditation. Volunteer @ a homeless shelter feeding the less-fortunate
